Steve Parkin: 'Nahki Wells going nowhere'

Bradford City assistant manager Steve Parkin has said that Bermudan striker Nahki Wells will not be leaving the club before the end of the summer transfer window.

The 23-year-old has been linked with a number of clubs after impressing for the Bantams last season, which included promotion from League Two and a run to the League Cup final.

"As far as we are concerned he is not leaving Bradford City," Sky Sports News quotes the 47-year-old as saying.

"Other clubs have had 12 months to have a look at him and we are not going to sell him a week before the transfer window closes.

"Both chairmen let us put a squad together to get promoted last season and hopefully to get promoted this season. You don't sell your best players if you want success. It is a no-go area."

Wells, who scored twice in today's 2-0 win over Sheffield United, notched 22 in League Two last season.
